Speaking on Thursday, December 6, during an interview on Citizen TV, Khalwale claimed Raila had similarly violated party rules by associating with President Uhuru Kenyatta, and thus committed the same offense as Jumwa and Dori who earlier pronounced support for Deputy President William Ruto.

"Let me just ask ODM that if they want us to believe them, then as they expel these two members of Parliament for associating with Ruto, they should also expel Raila, for associating with Uhuru. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander," said the former law maker.
